Red Hot Chili Peppers Add Dates to North American Tour

The Red Hot Chili Peppers have added 16 new dates to the North American leg of their ongoing world tour in support of their August release of I’m With You.

The leg builds upon the six previously announced shows and will take the funk rock quartet from Canada into the United States, where it will mostly visit the East Coast and Midwest.

Tickets for the new shows go on sale next week. Of course, RHCP noted to watch for more North American tour dates to be announced, as the tour will inevitably be extensive.
